The Battle Depends On God Part 2

August 16, 2023

Pastor Cheryl Jackson

God's word goes into our hearts and repairs the wounded soul. His word strengthens and fortifies us so that we're not walking in the wisdom of the world anymore, but we are walking in the wisdom of God. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom knowledge of the holy one is understanding. The Lord does not give us grief, in fact, his word is not grievous. 1 John 5:3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. KJV Scripture for thought Psalm 62:1-12 I wait patiently for God to save me; I depend on him alone. He alone protects and saves me; he is my defender, and I shall never be defeated. How much longer will all of you attack someone who is no stronger than a broken-down fence? You only want to bring him down from his place of honor; you take pleasure in lies. You speak words of blessing, but in your heart you curse him. I depend on God alone; I put my hope in him. He alone protects and saves me; he is my defender, and I shall never be defeated. My salvation and honor depend on God; he is my strong protector; he is my shelter. Trust in God at all times, my people. Tell him all your troubles, for he is our refuge. Human beings are all like a puff of breath; great and small alike are worthless. Put them on the scales, and they weigh nothing; they are lighter than a mere breath. Don't put your trust in violence; don't hope to gain anything by robbery; even if your riches increase, don't depend on them. More than once I have heard God say that power belongs to him and that his love is constant. You yourself, O Lord, reward everyone according to their deeds. Proverbs 9:10-11 To be wise you must first have reverence for the LORD. If you know the Holy One, you have understanding. Wisdom will add years to your life.
